Logan Brown is an AHL caliber player. Why’s he on your third line?

Cause this guy also thinks the trade is good...

Why make this trade? Poehling is better anyway...

i also like branstrom but i don't think he is big enough to play d at the nhl level, and poeling is better than brown, that package could net a way better return

Don't think any Sens fan would be interested in this. Don't need any of Poehling/Harris unless maybe RP if he would come very cheap. Then they'd trade Tierney to save on salary for the 4th line center job

The 2nd round picks are interesting but not sure what would be the point considering their u-25 pool. Their only positionnal needs are top-6 Center and top pairing RD. I think the goal would be to make a package to get a significant player

There's a problem with Cap Friendly, Brannstrom is listed as a RD but he is a LD. Sens actually don't want to have him play that side for technical reasons (defensive situations). It would be surprising to see another team have him play there right away

======================================================

And how come Poehling is better than Brown? Poehling has a 0.59 PPG in the AHL (0.18 in NHL) while Brown has a 0.84 PPG (0.30 in NHL)

Logan Brown is on another level in terms of skill and playmaking. Both aren't great skaters so they have to make up for it with an above average IQ. Ryan will have to prove it but Logan clearly has NHL vision/passing. He just hasn't been able to stay healthy for long stretches, and this has been the story for years. It has been ruining his career so far

I think the only players of interest in the Habs organization would be Suzuki, Caufield and Romanov but no point talking about it since the Habs wouldn't trade them for picks or younger prospects.

Divisional rivals and not good trading partners at the moment

Ottawa would not give you Brannstrom for that return. DECLINED.
